The magnetic and transport properties of anion- and cation-deficient Nd(0.52)Sr(0.48)MnO(3) films with different thicknesses, as well as of two films from this system grown on different SrTiO(3) and LaAlO(3) substrates, are studied. Below Curie temperature T (C), the films with different thicknesses exhibit phase separation: they represent magnetic clusters (drops) embedded in a nonconducting paramagnetic (at T > T (N), where T (N) is the N,el temperature) or antiferromagnetic (T
